Problem and Solution
Model Answer:

Global warming is one of the biggest threats humans face in the 21st Century
and sea levels are continuing to rise at alarming rates.

What problems are associated with this and what are some possible solutions.

Climate change is among the principal dangers facing people this century and ocean
levels are increasing dramatically. The biggest problem caused by this phenomenon
is the flooding of homes and submission of building flood protection is seen as the
most viable solution.

The foremost problem caused by sea levels creeping up is the flooding of peoples’
residences. Millions of people all over the world live in coastal areas and if the sea
rises by even a few feet, they will be inundated with water and lose their
property. Shelter is one of the most basic of human needs and widespread flooding
would cause millions of people to become homeless, not to mention losing all of
their possessions. The devastation brought about by this was clear for all to see
during the 2011 Tsunami in Japan, in which millions of people were displaced.

A possible solution to this problem would be to build flood barriers. Flood


defenses, such as dikes, dams and floodgates, could be built along coasts and
waterways, thereby stopping the water reaching populated areas. The Netherlands
is one of the most populated areas in the world and also one of the most vulnerable
to flooding and they have successfully employed various flood defense systems.

To conclude, stemming the rising tides caused by increasing global temperatures is


one of the foremost challenges we face and it will ultimately lead to many of the
worlds’ cities being left underwater, but a possible solution could be to utilize the
flood prevention techniques already used by countries like Holland. It is predicted
that more and more countries will be forced to take such measures to avoid a
watery catastrophe.
